Todd, if you don't get a good firm answer by this weekend I can check with my brother who is a goldsmith.
The first thing that came to mind was bead blasting. Depends on how delicate the casting is of course, but with a nice gentle media like crushed walnut shells or similar you'd be amazed at just how much control you have of the amount of surface material removed.
I'll watch this thread. If someone doesn't have a better suggestion, I'll get back to you on Sunday.
